Paedo who sent child sex images to Huw Edwards on WhatsApp is pictured as his sordid crimes laid bare
A PAEDOPHILE who shared vile child sex images with Huw Edwards has been unmasked for the first time.
Alex Williams, 25, sent the veteran newsreader 41 images – including two videos of a boy as young as seven – in a sick WhatsApp chat.
He previously pleaded guilty to a string of child sex offences and was handed a suspended sentence.
When police launched a probe into the convicted paedo, they seized a phone that exposed Edwards’ crimes.
The former BBC presenter yesterday admitted three counts of making indecent images of children.
Westminster Magistrates’ Court was told seven of the 41 images fall under Category A – the most serious classification.
This included two moving images of a young boy, possibly aged between seven and nine years old.
He also had photos of other children aged between 13 and 15 stored on his phone that were classed as Category A.
